A member of staff from Nottingham Building Society organised a curry night at Spice Club Melton Mowbray as part of her work’s Doing Good Together fundraising.
Jackie Long gathered her gym buddies together to enjoy the meal, and they helped her raise £146.50 for Leicester Hospice Charity LOROS.
She said: “We all had a great night for a very worthy cause, and for this I’m really grateful to them for supporting me.”
The National Audit Office today released a report into the financial sustainability of hospices. LOROS Hospice is calling for this report to mark a turning point in the debate over hospice funding, and urges government to step in to create a more sustainable funding model.
Staff at LOROS Hospice – including nurses on the inpatient ward – swapped their uniforms for pyjamas yesterday, as part of a fundraiser celebrating the launch of a new charity sleepwear range.
40 giant elephants from LOROS Hospice’s Stomp Round Leicester art trail were auctioned off last night, raising a mammoth £286,800 for the charity.
